PanethosTwo powerful World War II films now on NetflixThere are two outstanding movies about very divergent aspects of World War II currently available to watch on Netflix — Number 24 and The Six Triple Eight. Source: rogertebert.com Source: impawards.com <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt23782584/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Number 24</a> is a Norwegian film that is both dubbed and subtitled in English, which painfully depicts the moral and ethical dilemmas that arise from warfare.  It follows the accounts of a highly decorated Norwegian resistance fighter <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunnar_Sønsteby" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">(Gunnar Sønsteby</a>) both during the war itself and many years later as he is describing his decisions and his unit’s actions to college students as a guest lecturer. Source: spikytv.com The film is extremely well done and will leave viewers examining their own inner quandaries of how they would have handled such situations in the fog of war. Without revealing too many details, the film is particularly poignant when his unit’s lethal actions against fellow Norwegians who collaborated with Germany are discussed with the students._______<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt24458622/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Six Triple Eight</a> is a triumphant film featuring an all-star cast, about the only black <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s_Army_Corps" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Women’s Army Corp (WAC)</a> unit, the 6888, to be deployed to Europe during World War II. The extent of racism and bigotry directed towards these soldiers by their fellow Americans, including by their superior officers is simply appalling. Source: imdb.com <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerry_Washington" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kerry Washington</a> is outstanding as the Major overseeing this unit as they train and then are deployed to resolve a seemingly unsolvable task with minimal help and limited time. Sadly, the film also reminds the viewer of how far the United States has yet to go to truly fulfill it’s  heralded promises to all Americans.Both movies are highly recommended and neither is particularly long (under two hours each). <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/6888/" target="_blank">#6888</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/cinema/" target="_blank">#cinema</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/ethics/" target="_blank">#ethics</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/film/" target="_blank">#film</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/history/" target="_blank">#history</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/moral-dilemma/" target="_blank">#moralDilemma</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/movie-review/" target="_blank">#movieReview</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/movies/" target="_blank">#movies</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/netflix/" target="_blank">#Netflix</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/norway/" target="_blank">#Norway</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/nr-24/" target="_blank">#Nr24</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/number-24/" target="_blank">#Number24</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/resistance/" target="_blank">#resistance</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/resistance-fighters/" target="_blank">#resistanceFighters</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/television/" target="_blank">#television</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/the-six-triple-eight/" target="_blank">#TheSixTripleEight</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/tv/" target="_blank">#TV</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/tyler-perry/" target="_blank">#tylerPerry</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/usa/" target="_blank">#USA</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/wacs/" target="_blank">#WACs</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/war/" target="_blank">#war</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/women/" target="_blank">#women</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://panethos.wordpress.com/tag/world-war-ii/" target="_blank">#WorldWarII</a>
